Special limited edition of 300 signed and numbered copies, packaged in large oversized gatefold cover. Privately issued by the composer in collaboration with Sonnabend Gallery and issued in an edition of 300 signed copies in large silkscreened gatefold folio in 2002. This art edition was never officially distributed and after 10 years a limited amount of copies is now exclusively available for the first time from Alga Marghen. The first contact between Charlemagne Palestine and the Sonnabends took place in Paris with Simone Forti. It was 1972 and collaboration immediately started. Soon after Charlemagne created a sound installation at their gallery on rue Mazarine in Paris and then, when they decided to move to West Broadway Soho and leave Paris, they asked the composer to inaugurate their new Soho address by creating a double LP, the legendary “Four Manifestations On Six Elements”. The Sonnabends organised several concerts and installations with Charlemagne until the mid-1970s. Some time after the composer gave up performances and his sculpture was presented more in Europe than America.
The first disc comprises a private performance recorded at their gallery two days before the concerts on a Sunday while the second disc presents the two live performances recorded on the following Tuesday and Wednesday middle of September 2001. All the performances are played on a Bosendorfer Imperial piano
